This kit contains everything you need to shape and sharpen all your turning tools. A Gouge Jig, used for fingernail shaped bowl gouges and spindle gouges, can be set to create the edge geometry of your choice. Also for exchangeable cutters of any shape. The Multi Jig works for skew chisels with a straight or a curved edge and can be set for any skew angle. Also works for skews with an oval section, parting and beading tools, and roughing gouges. The Turning Tool Setter provides instant setting of the geometries on gouges and skews when using the Gouge Jig (SVD-185) and the Multi Jig (SVS-50). Features built in edge geometries and works on any stone diameter. The Tool Rest is used with scrapers, hollowing tools, and thin parting tools. Features secure locking on the Universal Support, thanks to the patented design. Profiled Leather Honing Wheel is for honing and polishing the flute on gouges. It has two exchangeable profiles: one with a 3mm (1/8") radius and one with a 60° point. Cover protects the machine from shavings and wood dust. Woodturner’s Instruction Box includes a 1 hour, 20 minute comprehensive DVD by Jeff Farris and a detailed handbook by Torgny Jansson that shows how to best work with the Tormek TNT sharpening system.

On the 1/2" bowl gouge I had to grind the shaft so that the clamp will hold - it does not hold over the channel. Clamp is also not tight on 1/4" gouge. The clamp needs a re-design. The brass and plastic do not hold well.
On the pros, once you get the gouges clamped, repeatability is excellent. Best edges I've ever had.
